I've done plenty of daredeviling - from white-water rafting to bungee jumping. But I think the most fearless was hosting the Emmy Awards. It was overwhelming, and I definitely had to leave fear at the door.

More quotes by Neil Patrick Harris
The subject of Citizenfour, Edward Snowden, could not be here for some treason.
Neil Patrick Harris
I'm very interested in starting to produce, and direct, and have an umbrella over an entire project in the future. I'd like to have control over what the characters do. I think as an actor, you get a little too caught up in the moment-to-moment, beat-to-beat stuff to have perspective.
Neil Patrick Harris
I don't like to be disparaging about my past roles. That's the only taboo that I don't like to cross.
Neil Patrick Harris
I don't feel ignored. But I'd rather engage readers than dictate my opinion to them. Opinion is so...subjective!
Neil Patrick Harris
I love the American musical for the simplicity of emotion that gets expressed.
Neil Patrick Harris
But magic is like pizza: even when it's bad, it's pretty good.
Neil Patrick Harris
I need to stop carving out four-hour chunks to do random things and go home and watch my children grow up.
Neil Patrick Harris
I've been taking a trapeze class for the last couple of years. I'm working on my double back flip right now.
Neil Patrick Harris
It's good to have a lot of once-in-a-lifetimes in your lifetime. If you get the chance to skydive, go skydiving. If you're offered a part in a weird Shakespeare play in San Diego, slap on some tights and rock out some iambic pentameter.
Neil Patrick Harris
I want to be able to infuse some youthful energy and comedy while appreciating the generations before.
Neil Patrick Harris
Benedict Cumberbatch is not only the best name in show business, it's also the response you get when you ask John Travolta to pronounce Ben Affleck.
Neil Patrick Harris
I would not dream of taking on Tobey Maguire. Plus, he's a talented and nice guy, and I have nothing but nice things to say about him.
Neil Patrick Harris
I love Buster Keaton. I was a big fan of the stunt shows at Universal Studios. I'm a huge Cirque du Soleil nut.
Neil Patrick Harris
I loved Rent when I first heard it, but it grew on me and so did Tick, Tick... Boom. Some songs are more interesting than others and sometimes the ones that never stood out at first end up being the best to perform.
Neil Patrick Harris
Charlie Sheen is who again? Denise is engaged?
Neil Patrick Harris
I was a big fan of how Johnny Carson hosted awards shows. Dick Cavett, as well, I think did a really great job of providing a nice blend of comedy, wit and class.
Neil Patrick Harris
Thankfully, the meat of the Tony telecast is the performances from the shows, so the awards show kind of creates itself around the season, and then I fill in based on the vibe of the season in general. I'm happy that there'll be so many legitimately good performances on the show.
Neil Patrick Harris
Oh sure, now you like him [after the audience applaud David Oyelowo].
Neil Patrick Harris
I get to choose things that interest me as opposed to trying to get any job that will have me, which for a vast majority of actors is the case.
Neil Patrick Harris
I'd love to be some sort of villain in a big-budget action movie. Or a superhero franchise. That'd be rad.
